FACESTIM® – Facial Muscle Stimulation

Does sagging skin or a sunken facial appearance make you self-conscious? Is a lack of facial definition hurting your confidence? FACESTIM® by Jovena can address these concerns through non-invasive facial muscle stimulation. Combining bipolar radiofrequency and muscle contractions, FACESTIM targets specific muscle groups to sculpt the face, correct certain asymmetries, and address signs of aging.

FACESTIM is a non-invasive treatment that:

• Is safe and well-tolerated by patients
• Has no side effects
• Has no downtime
• Helps prevent surgery

How does FACESTIM® work?

FACESTIM uses bipolar radiofrequency and muscle contractions based on diathermocontraction. Diathermocontraction combines diathermy or deep dermal heating + deep muscle contraction that can reach the deeper layers of the muscles without causing any side effects.

Radiofrequency generates heat in the tissue, resulting in collagen denaturation. This aids in producing new collagen that can help with tissue remodeling and shrinking of the lax connective tissue.

FACESTIM® also stimulates the inner facial muscles, while also improving the skin’s texture and quality. By combining muscle contractions and radiofrequency heating, it can target the muscle fibers to strengthen them and optimize lymphatic drainage.

The goal is to :

• Restore the harmony of facial volume
• Improve the texture and appearance of the skin
• Enhance the natural features of the face
• Promote skin tightening, firming, and toning

FAQs

 What are the benefits of FACESTIM®?

FACESTIM® offers a unique approach to facial sculpting rejuvenation by combining two patented procedures in one technology. You can turn to it to achieve:

• Lifted eyebrows for an energized and refreshed appearance
• Lifted mid-face and reduced nasolabial folds for a younger, healthier appearance
• Firmer jawline and neck area for a rejuvenated look

 How many sessions do you need?

In general, 3 to 5 sessions with about 2 weeks intervals are recommended, but this can still depend on the patient’s profile. For touch-up treatments, 1 to 2 additional sessions done every 3 to 4 months are recommended.

 What results can I expect?

FACESTIM® offers an immediate lifting effect with a natural-looking appearance. It aims to restore the harmony of facial volume, while also improving the texture and appearance of the skin.

You may be able to see visible results from the first sessions, with results lasting between 6 and 8 months.

Does the treatment hurt?

You may feel a slight sensation of heat and rhythmic contractions of the muscles, but this is well-tolerated by patients. A single session lasts between 20 and 60 minutes.

Can you combine FACESTIM® with other treatments?

Yes. You can FACESTIM® with dermal fillers or botulinum toxin. It can help restructure the face, allowing practitioners to use less fillers for face contouring and volumization. This also provides a more natural-looking result.

The treatment can also be used alongside other devices and treatments such as radiofrequency microneedling, ultrasounds, or chemical peels to enhance the final results.
